Okay, I'll be honest, I skimmed this topic at best, but this flailed off of the page at me. Surgery for gynecomastia is covered by Medicare (national health) in Australia, and further covered by private insurance. This means that top surgery and/or revisions are covered here no matter whether you're legally male or female at the time.

Same in certain provinces in Canada. Both can be covered by OHIP (provincial health care) here in Ontario.

If you're in NY near the Albany Area CDPHP is a GREAT plan and covers EVERYTHING (everything meaning both surgeries).  My top surgery next year is only costing me $150 (that's my co-payment through my plan I get through work so different plans may have slightly different prices) and if I choose to do bottom surgery it will only be $1,000 ($800 of which I get reimbursed from work).  They also cover my T ($10 co-pay a month).  I do have to by my needles outright, but that's like $5 a month so it's not bad.

Wow, that's awesome.  and that's an insurance plan that anyone could get on if their work offered it?  Who do you work for? (if I may ask.)
